You have 3 pictures of the Obverse showing. Need one of the Reverse.
My first thought is that it is a counterfeit as Toonies stopped using
the date on top in 2012. Photo of the reverse will confirm that.

I'll try this again. I'm having trouble uploading a picture of both the obverse and reverse. For some reason it changes all the pictures to the same. Maybe I need to start a new post. Here it is again. The reverse. I changed the filename. See if that worked.  |

Thank you all for your patience. I'm still new. Took me 3 days to get logged back in. I guess you have to change the file name of each picture. Thanks JimmyD. I also found information that this particular RCM logo was replaced in 2013. So I too wondered if it is a fake. |

Yes, you have to change the file name for each picture.
Can you take a clear photo of the two maple leafs at the bottom of the reverse,
the security features seem to be missing. This would confirm that it is a counterfeit.

These 2 pics do not match what the 2015 Sir John A MacDonald look like, This is what it should be,   |

Yes, thank you mcshilling. I have that one also and there is a lot of information on it. Just trying to figure out this other one I have. Seems like a lot of trouble to fake when the polar bear was so much easier to falsify.

@Dee123456: A very interesting counterfeit toonie, never saw or heard of this one. Must keep my eyes open.  Imagine, some shady numismatics actually collect counterfeits, but we tend to be very discrete. ..  . Edited by Sharks

I've learned a lot from this community. Can anyone suggest a website where I can learn more on identifying fake coins? The only one I really knew about was the Camel Toe Toonie. Thanks everyone for your expertise.
